I am having some trouble with Z46.0 vs Z01.00. Z46.0 is for a fitting of contacts or spectacles, while Z01.00 is for a routine eye exam. Wouldn't Z46.0 be considered routine as well? Some insurance carriers will reimburse for Z46.0 but not Z01.00, and I feel like they're interchangeable if the OD/MD fit the patient for glasses or contacts. Any insight you may have would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you
